Abstract:
The crystal structures of 2-amino-2-thiazoline, C3H6N2S, and 2-amino-2-thiazolinium 2-naphthoxyacetate, C3H7N2S+.C12H9O3-, are reported. The structure of 2-amino-2-thiazoline consists of two unique molecules that construct a convoluted hydrogen-bonded ribbon involving R(2)2(8) graph-set association via both N-H...N and N-H...S interactions. The organic salt structure consists of the two molecules associated via an R(2)2(8) graph-set dimer through N-H...O interactions, with the hydrogen-bonding network propagated via additional N-H...O three-centre interactions from the second 2-amine H atom.

1° Amines to Diazonium or Aryldiazonium Salts: Diazotization with NaNO2 Overview
The nitrous acid is unstable. Hence, it is formed in situ from a solution of sodium nitrite and cold aqueous acids such as hydrochloric or sulfuric acid. In an acidic solution, the –OH group of nitrous acid undergoes protonation to give oxonium ion, followed by water loss...

Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives: Amides and Nitriles
The IUPAC and common names of amides are derived from the parent carboxylic acid, by replacing the suffix “oic acid” and “ic acid,” respectively, with “amide.” In the following example, the IUPAC name ethanamide is derived from ethanoic acid, and the common name, acetamide, is obtained from acetic acid.

Structures of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives
Carboxylic acid derivatives contain an acyl group attached to a heteroatom such as chlorine, oxygen, or nitrogen. The carbonyl carbon and oxygen are both sp2-hybridized with an unhybridized p orbital.
The three sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl carbon form three σ bonds, one each with the carbonyl oxygen, the α carbon, and the heteroatom, whereas the other two sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl oxygen are occupied by the lone pairs. Further, the unhybridized p...
